Fhe Oshawa Times Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited, 57 Simcoe St. S., Oshawa, Ont. Poge 4 Saturday, December o, 1958 Business Leaders Share Ideas With University University of Toronto officials held a conference with business leaders this week, the purpose being, as University President Bissell explained it, to "hear from you as frankly and informally as possible your ideas on a number of sub- jects," Dr. Bissell was frank, "We realize that education is a specialized, profes sional activity," he said, "and that fl- nal decisions must be made by those who are concerned from day to day with educational problems, At the same time we realize that educational problems are becoming so enmeshed with political and social problems that it Is increasingly useful to get the opin fons of those who work and live in the world of affairs . , . We can give you no guarantee that we will accept your suggestions, We think, however, that it is important for us to be aware of what you are thinking, and that we should consider your attitude as one of the im- portant factors which will condition our own thinking." That kind of straight talk is neces- sary, The universities need the financial help of the business men, but they must make it clear that an endowment does not give the business man a mortgage on university policy, Dr, Bissell admit- ted that "the enormous sums that must be Invested In higher education would, in themselves, entitle the business man to have some convictions about the na- ture and future of higher education." The reader will note that the careful choice of words convictions are one GUEST EDITORIAL translate is some- thing and the authority to those convictions into action thing quite different, The business leaders who attended the conference were given what the university authorities considered -basie assumptions "that must determine the kind of conclusions we reach," These leave no doubt about how the "enor~ mous sums" would be used, A univers- ity must be essentially a centre of scholarship, University education is concerned primarily with the why, and not with the how. "The demand to de~ vote more and more time in the uni versity years to practical experience springs out of a misunderstanding of the nature of higher education." In a prop= er university, no one discipline is de- * veloped at the expense of another -- politics Is as Important as physics, and mental philosophy as important as met- allurgy. In the attitude of a university there must be a balance between a con- sciousness of present and future probe lems and an interest in the elucidation of the past, We hope Dr, Bissell and his col- leagues -- and other university author- ities -- continue this sort of Informal exchange of cpinion, The universities need help, but if they sell their academ- le souls to obtain it, they will no long= er be universities, Meetings such as that held in Toronto do a great deal to clear the air, particularly when the aims as well us the needs of the uni= versities are so articulately and frank= ly defined Ready For Christmas ? By the Rev. A. W, Schaafsma Rehoboth Christian Reformed Church Bowmanville That is the question the barber asked me last week, and you can not blame the man. Everyone is making preparations for the feast. Some hurry from one store to the other, Some take it easy. They wish their preparations to be a feast al ready All know the warning: Do not be too late! In fact we can not even forget about the necessity of being ready at the great day. There is the radio which tells us: Do it now! The store windows Invite us: Walk in and buy, what you need for the feast! One must be hard, to stand all these reminders, Well, I hope all of you who read this may get it finished before the Day. However, do we realize that even then the question remains: Are you ready for Christmas? Because what does Christmas mean? think it ridiculous, te ask that question, Who would not know the meaning of Christmas? However, don't you think that quite a few of all those busily shopping people would not know the answer to that question any- more, Do you, reader, know the answer, this only correct Christ was born, the Savier of the world? You probably answer: I know indeed. But then the next question is: Are you ready to celebrate His birth- day? I think of the joy of the Old Testa- ment prophet: For unto us a child is Perhaps you correct answer: born, unto us a son is given and his name shall be called Wonderful, Coun~ sellor, the mighty God, the everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace. Do we need much explanation of these words of Isaiah to understand that In this child God Himself stoops down to us, In our misery of guilt and sin and death, to be our Saviour? To give us peace with Him, as Paul says: We then justified by faith have peace with God, through Jesus Christ our Lord, As you know, it is not all gold that glitters, Among all these men and wo- men who buy presents for one another for Christmas, there are quite a few who try to make It up again with their wives, their husbands, their children, A present, perhaps a quite precious one, must do the job of reconciliation, Actually there is one with whom we have to make it up again, That one is God. And we can not make it up again with Him, whatever present we would offer. Even the sacrifice of our own life would not suffice But that is Christmas: Hers Is God's present the present of His love and grace to make it up again with us from His side only. Are you ready for Christmas? Not to give something, but to receive some- thing; To receive Jesus as your Sav= jour; To accept that God will reconcile you unto Himself in this Child in his manger, in the Man of sorrows on His cross? Are you ready, as you should be for Christmas to thank God for His present--with the prayer of a sinner: O God be merciful to me also for this Saviour's sake, Moonlighting Troubles Despite the opposition of labor, man- agement, wives and doctors, moon- lighting still is on the ascendant, says the industrial bulletin of the New York state department of labor, Since 1953, the bulletin says, the number of work- ers smitten with '"second-job fever" has doubled in the United States, from 1,800,000 to 3,700,000. And it is likely the situation is similar in Canada. The bulletin makes a detailed report on moonlighting. It points out that when extra jobs became fashionable they were held mostly by firemen, po- licemen and postal clerks, but that cur- rently the ranks are swelled by 10 per cent of the nation's 1armers and a start ling 75 per cent of all male school teacher 8 dn the United States. hye Oshawa Times 1 .

Another medical man who claims the fatigued . person is accident-prone, be« cause of slower reflexes said: "T be- lieve the disadvantages of moonlight« ing from a medical point of view are the developing of chronic mental and physical fatigue from inadequate rest and the pressure of doing two jobs." In times of labor shortage there is need for moonlighting in order to main tain the national production, But there is no labor shortage in either the Unis ted States or Canada today.

McINTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng.) Corres; ndent ar The Times LONDON -- Resignation of Tan Harvey from his post as under. secretary for foreiz affairs and his seat in the House of Com mons as MP for Harrow, has forced on the government an un- expected and very much unwant- ed by-election, The Conservatives are very unhappy about It, be cause Harrow can be consider. od very much a marginal seat, The promising parliamentary career of Mr. "larvey has come to an untimely end under rather sordid and tragle circumstances, They dav after he appeared in court at Bow street charged along with a young Guards offi. cer of gross indecency In St, James Park, he submitted his resignations. They were accepted by Prime Minister Macmillan, LIBERALS HOLD KEY Mr. Harvey won the Harrow seat in 1055 by a 3622 majority, in a straight fight with a Socialist candidate. Now a brand new Con. servative candidate has to be found to contest tho seat on be- hall of the government, Even in a straight contest with the Soclal- ists, the Issue Is conceded to be in doubt. But looming In the background is the strong likeli hood of a Liberal candidate en. tering the field, In 1950 a Liberal candidate nolled 6303 votes, and in 1051, 3320 votes. In the light of that record, entry of a Liberal might well ensure the defeat of the government candidate and election of a Socialist, So the anxiety of the Conservatives Is quite understandable, Incidentally, I have a direct In. terest in this by-election, My home Is located in the Harrow constituency, and as my name is on the electors' list, I will be able to vote for tho first time in a British election GOING A LONG WAY The government's policy of tak. ing care of the overspill of popu- lation in large cities has revealed an Inclination to take drastic measures to deal with this prob. lem, Glasgow Is one of the cities which Is looking for places to which to move thousands of its surplus people, Two new towns have been cre ated to absorb between 60,000 and 70,000 of them, Now the town of Wick, in Calth. ness, away up on the far north. east corner of Scotland, has com- pleted an overspill agreement with the Glasgow Corporation, Wick has agreed to take between 1500 and 2000 from Glasgow, While this is contingent on light industries being established in the town, to give them employment, that phase of the plan is causing no concern. The Government uses its powers to establish industries In overspill areas, DISTANCE NO ORSTACLE Wick, however, Is a long way from Glasgow, around 250 miles to the north east, But distance seems no obstacle to the project. The Wick council has agreed to build 600 houses for the overspill population and the Scottish Hous. ing Authority has heen asked to build a similar number, And 2s a result of all this, Wick expects to get a much « improved train and alr service from the south, One interesting feature of this decentralization policy is that no diffienlty is 'experienced in per suading the overspill population to move to the new areas provid higher in his education, World Copyright Reserved TORONTO (CP) Ontario Liberal Leader John Winter mever has accused the prove ince's Progressive Conservative government of "misleading" the public by announcing an $800,000 surplng on ordinary account for he fiscal year ending March 31, In reality Ontario had an es- ed for them, They look upon It timated debt of $60 000,000, he as an opportunity to make a now gajd Friday, and this will in- start in life under much improved crease to $140,000,000 in the cur: conditions. rent fiscal vear VERY FEW EVICTIONS "his estimate fs twice as high When the much heralded Rent on the debt increase in any prev ous year in Ontario's history Act was passed by parliament, It yr "ip fo oar sald the gove was predicted that when it caine oh i s ta of } § k Into effect on October 6 of this TRMENt keeps two gets of books wil one for ordinary expenditures year, the country courts would be and another "for what is called Jooded with eviction Srders, With capital expenditures."
